In Nieuw-Lekkerland, we will start collecting paper from a fixed collection point in a number of streets. Residents of these streets will receive a letter informing them of this change by post on 13 June.
What changes where?
The paper containers of residents of the Segboerstraat (odd numbers only), P. van der Veldestraat, G. Verstegenstraat, W. van Zijlstraat we will from Wednesday 26 June emptying from fixed collection points. In these streets, waste paper and cardboard are collected every fourth Wednesday evening of the month by a regular group of volunteers from youth association Dutch Reformed Church in the evening together with us. To do this as quickly, well and safely as possible, our drivers drive a new route along fixed collection points.
Why a fixed offer site?
In the evening hours, many parked cars make it difficult for our drivers to empty paper containers, especially in narrow streets. This can cause delays in collection and can even lead to unsafe situations and damage. Our drivers can collect paper containers better and safer in the evening from a delivery point, because there are no cars parked there.

By properly placing your paper container at the delivery point, you help our drivers and volunteers empty the containers as properly, quickly and safely as possible.
Do not park cars near the drop-off site on collection days.
Place the container with the opening facing the road. Then the valve opening will fall back closed after emptying and no paper will end up on the street.
The lid of your container should be closed, that way we prevent litter. Flatten boxes, so more will fit in the container.
